Odell Beckham Jr Airplane Video: He Finally Addressed The Footage

May 2024 · 3 minute read

Odell Beckham Jr airplane video has been making rounds on social media. 

In response to a recently made public video showing him getting ejected from an American Airlines flight in November, Odell Beckham Jr. has issued a statement. 

Earlier on Thursday, the 30-year-old NFL free agent tweeted that he can’t address everything in this world; it’s stressful.

Beckham stated that he has minded his own business and stayed out of the way since the Super Bowl. 

The hardest thing for him to do was let someone play with his name, so he decided to speak out after the video was made public and people on the internet reacted.

Insisting that people who are acquainted with him are aware of exactly who he is, the wide receiver implied that the episode is not representative of his actual nature. He claimed that everyone has an opinion about things they weren’t involved in.

Beckham penned: ‘Apart from those who don’t know what they’re talking about, my least favorite thing about the world is that we can edit up any video, whatever we want to make it look GOOD or BAD. Our current world is funny.’

Beckham ended his Twitter rant on a high note by posting a picture of his son, Zydn Beckham, bathing. 

What happened in the video?

Police were seen entering the plane and approaching Beckham during the incident on November 27 in body cam footage from the Miami-Dade police department, which was shared by the local Miami news station WPLG Local 10 and confirmed to be genuine on Thursday. 

According to flight attendants, Beckham, who was traveling in first class, was dozing off and ignored instructions to fasten his seatbelt.

They summoned the police to remove Mr. Beckham from the aircraft out of fear that Mr. Beckham was seriously ill and that his health would worsen over the planned 5-hour journey, Det. Artemis AC Colome said in November. 

Officers claim that the former L.A. Rams player resisted but was asked to exit the aircraft. 

Beckham said, “That’s great,” after one officer threatened to “deplane everyone” from the aircraft, including him if he persisted in refusing. 

Several people expressed anger towards Beckham as other passengers got off the plane. 

Beckham responded, “You’re going to wait 40 minutes, and I’m going to be on a private plane home.”

The 30-year-old wide receiver was taken off the aircraft at around 9:30 a.m. after Beckham refused to comply with safety regulations.

According to Beckham’s lawyer, Daniel Davillier, who spoke to ESPN, the event happened while his client was sleeping and was brought on by an overzealous flight attendant.

He claimed, ‘Mr. Beckham was never disruptive or aggressive. He was willing to wear a seatbelt, but the flight attendant insisted on showing that he had the right to kick Mr. Beckham off the plane.’
